An action-packed superhero-versus-villain murder mystery party game set during an emergency summit beneath the crime-ridden city of Shadow Falls. This comic-book-inspired mystery is packed with extraordinary powers, global heroes, notorious villains, secret identities, fragile alliances, dangerous rivalries, strategic challenges, forensic evidence, a planetary threat, and murder among sworn enemies forced to work together.
Superhero vs. Villain Murder Mystery Party Game Synopsis:
Terrifying news has traveled around the globe: the infamous Moon King has escaped from prison and may be heading toward his hidden lair to launch a plan capable of destroying the planet. The Freedom League of Heroes has responded by calling powerful heroes and notorious villains to an emergency summit inside a high-tech sanctuary buried beneath Shadow Falls, one of the world’s most dangerous cities.
The opposing factions must briefly put their conflicts aside, combine their extraordinary powers, and devise a strategy to capture the Moon King before time runs out. Many of these heroes and villains have never shared the same room, and generations of distrust, criminal histories, wounded pride, and personal rivalries make cooperation almost impossible.
When the summit becomes deadly, the survivors must inspect the evidence, analyze the forensic report, question allies and enemies, and identify the killer while continuing their mission to save Earth. You have been summoned to the secret sanctuary beneath Shadow Falls, and this is where your story begins.

We had 11 adults play, and the age range was from 20s to 60s. We all had a blast with our characters, the purpose of the extra puzzles might bother some people but we loved it!
As a teacher, this was a perfect activity for my class. We enjoyed the colorful intro video and the documents were easy to read and follow! The students had a blast dressing for their parts and I did as well!
Very thorough and complete package of materials!
We had so much fun tonight at our hero/villian party tonight. The murder/mystery is well written and instructions are so clear it helps make your party run so smooth. We for sure will be using My Mystery Party again in the future.
In general I love the mystery kits from this website. Lots of fun and well organized and thought out. I would Definitely recommend to anyone. BUT while cutting and putting everything in envelopes i saw Who the murderer was because at the very top of one page it said “blank” is the murderer
The characters were really fun and varied, so the costumes were awesome. The story in itself was fun, although it went a loy faster than originally planned. The dance minigame was hilarious; I highly reccomend including it!
